Chapter 139 This is what Konoha and I owe you (please vote!!)

"...Really, really?"

After listening to Mito's explanation, Tsunade remained silent for a long time. Although she recognized the feasibility in her heart, she still said uneasily: "Is it really okay?"

She now looks like a child who was afraid of injections and refused to take them when she was sick, but got a promise from her mother to "buy you candy after the injection."

"of course it's true."

Seeing Tsunade's childish behavior, Mito wiped her face with his sleeves and said with a smile:

"You girl, because you are getting older, you are no longer willing to listen to me, a verbose old guy. I will get impatient and run away after nagging you for a few words. But now you seem to be a cute child, crying like Like a little cat.”

Mito's non-hypocritical teasing words made Tsunade feel much more relaxed, her cheeks became as red as her eye circles, she sniffed and tightened the necklace around her neck.

This necklace is a relic of her grandfather Senju Hashirama. It is a very special and rare chakra crystal. It contains the chakra that Hashirama had sealed during his lifetime. It has the power to suppress tailed beasts to a certain extent.

She once gave this necklace to her brother Naoki as a birthday gift. Naoki was inspired to learn the origin of the necklace and vowed to become Hokage.

But, on the second day of my birthday.

Shengshu died in the detonating charm trap. After his death, he was completely unrecognizable. He could only identify his body with the necklace.

"I swore to become Hokage because of a necklace. That kid Naoki is really naive."

Feeling the warmth of the necklace in her hand, Tsunade lowered her head and smiled bitterly and said softly: "But I don't seem to be qualified to say such things now..."

Although Naruto is still far away from her now, she also understands that what her grandma said is true.

Judging from the reactions before and after the destruction of the Whirlpool Kingdom, regardless of whether the higher-ups were involved in this matter, it can be seen that everyone in Konoha is now in danger.

As the Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen is wary of the ninjas, and those ninjas can no longer trust the top management of Konoha.

Tsunade originally thought that even if she took the position of Hokage, she would just be like her teacher and still be unable to do anything.

However, after listening to Mito's explanation, he found that this was not the case.

Perhaps, it was not the Hokage who was incompetent, but the Third Hokage, her teacher, Sarutobi Hiruzen.

We just need someone to lead us forward, as long as we move in a good direction, instead of being hostile to each other and standing still.

Just doing this is enough, right?

"grandmother."

Tsunade raised her head, took a breath, and asked in a low voice, "What should I do?"

She still had no interest in the Hokage position and didn't know if she could do better than her teacher, but if this was what grandma wanted to see...

Then she wanted to give it a try.

"Just lie down and be patient."

Mito patted the hospital bed under him, with a gentle and kind smile on his old face: "It will be fine soon, just have a sleep."

After hesitating for a moment, Tsunade nodded, lay on the hospital bed obediently, and slowly closed her eyes.

The smile on Mito's face gradually faded a lot. He formed a hand seal and used a genjutsu on Tsunade, and saw her slightly trembling eyelids calm down.

Immediately, Mito turned to look at Kushina, who had been silent, with guilt, pity, and regret in her eyes.

"Kushina."

She sighed deeply and tiredly, as if she was about to breathe out her last breath, touched Kushina's messy red hair, and said softly: "Tsunade will protect you after I leave."

After that, looking at the girl's slightly confused and sad face, Mito stretched out his arms to hold her in his arms, closed his eyes and said: "Hide well, don't be discovered, and then grow up quickly, you and I Sinners are different.”

Kushina is still "Kushina Uzumaki", but Mito is no longer "Mito Uzumaki".

Watching the death of his old friend and the destruction of his hometown, he knew clearly who the murderer was, but he was not qualified to avenge them because of his position, and allowed the darkness to spread deep in this big tree.

Powerlessness, guilt, regret, pain, entanglement, fear...

She was so tired.

The only thing she can do now is to divide her hope into two parts, one for her husband's Konoha, and one for the future of Uzumaki.

Yes, the future of whirlpool.

Kushina's last name is "Uzumaki", not the "Uzumaki" of Konoha, but the "Uzumaki" of the Kingdom of Whirlpool.

"At least, you don't need to bear any ill will and can grow up in peace."

Mito slowly opened his eyes, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes, and whispered: "When the day you know the truth, no matter what your final choice is, no one is qualified to blame you."

"Konoha and I owe you this."

After saying that, she slowly stood up and placed Kushina, who had fallen asleep due to the genjutsu in her arms, on another bed.

Apart from apologizing and escaping with death, this was the last thing she could do.

Mito turned to look at the pharmacist, forced a smile and said: "Finally, I have to trouble you to take care of this child."

"It doesn't matter. There is already a little ghost at home, and we can just find him a companion."

The pharmacist just smiled and shook his head, and said with some respect in his tone: "Then in the end, I hope you can get the peace and comfort you want."

Peace and comfort?

The relief and tiredness in Mito's eyes disappeared fleetingly. He nodded and put his hand on his abdomen. His mind sank and he entered the sealed space in his body.

When she opened her eyes again, she saw vastness and desolation.

There is only one lava sphere hanging in the sky, emitting turbulent heat like the sun.

This is not a different dimension, but the mental world of chakra.

Mito could clearly feel that compared to the last time he came here, the enthusiasm was obviously much lighter.

The seal, which had been reinforced many times and was unbreakable, had cracks due to the previous loss of control.

"Hoho, Mito, you actually dare to come here."

A voice filled with hatred and joy came from Mito, who looked up and met those vertical pupils full of violence.

Faced with Kyuubi's provocation, Mito's response was simple.

Kaka!

Mito clenched his fists expressionlessly, his finger muscles making crisp sounds.

Hearing this voice that he had not heard for many years but was still familiar to him, it was clearly tied to the magma ball with chains in the shape of a "big" character, but Kyuubi shivered violently as if he was stressed.

"You!" It stared at Mito with its eyes and bared its teeth in a threatening manner, "What are you going to do?"

Damn it! Why did this woman wake up so quickly?

Considering Mito's severely damaged mental state at the time, coupled with the chakra and body drained by it, he should have been in a coma for at least a month or two.

The seal is obviously loose. If you give it a little more time, it can escape directly!

"Kyuubi, I came to you to borrow some chakra."

Mito whispered as he walked over, and the lava balls in the air also fell.
